MASisrEk. Oct 1.-THE girl Minnie
Demorse OF Henderson. va inseisled into
making her oonfsssions ty young nan
named Alexander NcGFegor. who gsised
her confidence by pretending 10 maze love
10 her, after the house was fred. Last
September.
Minnie says she poisoned the cox with
rough on rats. because she had 70 keep the
stables clean and do the milking. 80 thought
IL would be all right 10 get ria OF the COW,
anu thus OF the hard work, la that way.
The COW lived Two days after the poison
was administrated, but was very sick. and
her milk was given 10 neighbOrs u iced
their pigs. and nine Of the pigs died Id con-
seqnence Of this diet.
Ga the 22d Of June last Mrs. Henderson
went down town, leaving her baby IN hin-
MES care. aud when she returned home the
baby was dead. The girl now says she did
not smother the baby pniposeiy. but
pnt blanket over the b4by 10 keep IL
warm, although she confessed 10 McGregor
mat she used the blanket because the
| baby cried while she was washing the din
ner dishes.
Ia September daughter of Mr.. Hender-
son By his first vile. who was adopted by a
relative " bile she was an infant et the
death of her mother, came 10 visit her
| father and stepmother. "Polly" (Ninnie)
was jealous OF The visitors fine clothes.
and says she set fire to the house for the
purpose of burning her own old clothes so
that she could get new clothing like other
| giIls had.
| The girl has been arrested only on the
| charge of larceny, rs she also coniesses 10
| having taken money out of Mrs. Hender-
son trunk To purchase jewelry.
Polly" was born al Towanda, Pa,
eighteen years ago. Her mother was part
negro, white ana Mohawk Indian, and her
father was white man. her father was
serving a term in penitentiary for rape at
| the time Mrs. Henderson took
Polly" for adoption, eight years ago,
while on visit TO Towanda Mrs. Hen
| dersons former home. The girl is of
medium hight and build, has small, coal
black eyes. straight, jet black hair. and the
| dark skin feculiar TO the mixture OF In
dian and negro. Her voice is pleasant, and
| in conversation her manner is earnest,
leading one to believe her sincere and
| honest, She is. however, devoid OF any
moral sense, and does not seem to realize
| that she has committed any crime, as she
| talks about the matters as freely as she
| might about party or ball.
